I've been cooped up
inside for 14 days now. What I thought was a simple cold was actually
much more. So after a couple of days on antibiotics I was seriously
going stir crazy and decided it was time to get out and get some fresh
air. I took a walk that I haven't done in while, up into Piazzale
Michealgelo, but instead of taking the known, common route I decided on
the road less traveled and wound my way through the side streets and
less known paths and through the hills of the Tuscan countryside. I
brought my camera along, it was sunset and the light was amazing. Here
are a few shots of the evening in no particular order. I feel so much
better now! It is this kind of beauty that truly enriches and inspires
my life.

| I think this is my favorite of all the photos I took. So sweetly waiting to go inside. |

| The colors were amazing! |

| And this is my second favorite shot |
 |
| Bella Firenze! |
 |
| Very steep hill I walked down, then decided to turn around and walk back up. Talk about killer workout! |

Just a few reminders as to why I love this place so much. Florence truly is one of the most beautiful cities on Earth.

Grazie Helene! I'm glad that you enjoyed the post! That is so nice to hear! I've never been but I hear Sweden is beautiful as well. My husband and I have always wanted to visit, hopefully one day soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for stopping by, I always enjoy your comments:)
Oh no! Hope you are feeling better. You are quite lucky in your beautiful city! Can't wait to come visit you. ;)
ReplyDeleteAww! Thanks Kelly! Nothing like some fresh air and a nice walk to make me feel better! I can't wait to show you all of my favorite places! :)
ReplyDeleteYou're ringt, Sweden is beautiful too. You should go in summer though, it's the best. Summer on the country side... Crazy beautiful. Just let me know if I can help you in any way, would love to help so that you really get to see the best parts! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I've put your blog to my favorites so I visit almost every day! ;)
Heléne
Aww! Thanks Helene, that is so very kind of you! I would love to return the favor if you are ever in Florence!
ReplyDeleteThank you! very sweet of you! I will remember that! :) for sure I'll go again, it's the city of my heart, forever. Hopefully, if my plan works, I will buy my own place there and I will go whenever I feel like it. Hmm... Not hopefully - that will happen eventually! Then I'll invite you for coffee and seven types of cookies, my house - in true old traditional Swedish style ;) you may take that as a promise!
ReplyDeleteI very much look forward to that Helene! Can't wait! A presto allora! Florence is the city of my heart too!
